Mrs. Swellby's Fly Party.
From TIE Boston TI,nnscript.

There is nothing like woInan's ready irge
nuity to conquer a social dilemma The Swellbys,
who belong TO the most elegant circle out at
Brooksbury, lately completed their new house.
and proposed to celebrate their return from the
seaside and their occupancy of their new man
sion by little house-warming party-not a
grand reception, of course, which would have
been quite out of the question at this season
but a CHEEKY little dancing party 70 some of
their friends and nearly all OF their neighbors,
including some people who scarcely belong to
the grand monde of Broozsbury, and could
hardly have been invited to a grand reception
given by such fashionable people as the Swell.

by little social attention. There was delay in

house, as there always is, and the important de

Though they have no chance to elect
them, the Republicans of New York city
are putting out full local tickets, with the
purpose of trading with the George party.
All their energies will be devoted to electing
their candidates for State offices, with the
hope of weakening the prestige of the ma
tional administration, so as to defeat the
denomination of Mr.. Cleveland, if possible
1t seems to be a settled thing that Mr.
Blaine can get the Republican nomination
if he wants it, and it may be that his con-
sent to make the race again depends upon
who his opponent will be. He probably
does not want to try conclusions again with

The Spiders Fatal Mistake.

from The 4Ibnnu JOUrndL
small garden spider had spun his web in a
corner where a perpendicular column and a
horizontal rail met, and from the ambush of a
hidden crack awaited his dipterous prey. A
handsome yellow wasp passing that way espied
feet lightly on two or three of the meshes, he
started up great buzzing, which shook the web
from end to end. The watchful spider ran out
little way, stretched forth a delicate foot to
make sure of the location of the supposed fly,
and then rushed for it, alighting on the wasp
with gleeful jump and no doubt a grin of hide.
Gus triumph. But Mr.. Spider had rcckoned
wasp's six nimble legs closed upon him, the
graceful body bent nearly double, and once,
twice, thrice, again and again, the sharp sting
pierced the luckless spider. As his struggles
grew fainter and finally ceased, the wasp, with
spring, disentanged himself from the silken
net and bore away his spidery victim in triumph.

printed all over the country, is certainly
one of the most remarkable on record II

the woman never had any children, but the

them is still in Jail. The woman is proba-

Republican financers of the refundng days at

guaranty that they should not be redeemed for
twenty years. 1t is this guaranty that now

and redeeming them at par, without premium
